-How to install the CrOS software on your Arduino UNO board
-====== Step One: Download the Arduino software ======
-To install the Crowbox system software onto your Arduino UNO microcontroller board, you'll need a computer, a USB A to B cable, and the Arduino IDE software, which is available for free download. IDE stands for //Integrated Development Environment//, but that's not an important detail right now.
-Let's get started!
-  -Visit the Arduino website at https://www.arduino.cc
-  -From the menu bar near the top of the web page, select SOFTWARE->DOWNLOADS
-  -Disregard the section labelled //Arduino Web Editor// and scroll down the the section labelled //Download the Arduino IDE//
-  -From the right-hand sidebar, select the operating system that applies to the computer you will use to program your Arduino Uno. The Arduino IDE software is offered for Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux. If you are downloading for Windows operating system, we recommend the option labelled //Windows Installer//
-  -After you select an operating system you will be taken to a download page where you may choose to //Contribute and Download// or //Just Download//. Here you may choose to download the Arduino IDE for free, or make a contribution to the Arduino project. **NOTE:** Crowbox has no direct affiliation with Arduino.
-  -Once you’ve made a selection, the Arduino software will download.
-====== Step Two: Install the Arduino Software ======
-===== For Windows operating system =====
-===== For Mac OSX operating system =====
-  -In your Downloads folder, locate the file named something like arduino-x.x.x-macosx.zip
-  -Double click the file and it should automatically extract
-  -Locate the extracted file which will simply be named "Arduino". It should have a round, green icon.
-  -You may leave this Arduino file in your //Downloads// folder, or drag to move it somewhere else, such as into your //Applications// folder.
-===== For Linux operating system =====
-We are looking for someone to help us by writing Linux installation instructions for the Arduino IDE. If you're willing to contribute, please contact us on the **Crowbox Google Group** FIXME
